Definitions

  • This invention relates to methods for measuring cardiovascular and respiratory parameters using a depth-specific photoplethysmography (PPG) signal derived from multi-wavelength PPG.
  • PPG depth-specific photoplethysmography
  • Photoplethysmography is a simple and low-cost optical technique that can be used to detect blood volume changes in the microvascular bed of tissue and estimate cardiovascular and respiratory parameters.
  • a PPG sensor system typically includes a light source and a light detector, and infrared (IR) light emitting diodes (LEDs) are usually used as the light emitting component.
  • IR infrared
  • LEDs light emitting diodes
  • PPG is often used to make non-invasive measurements at the skin surface.
  • the accuracy of extracting cardiovascular-and respiratory-related information from the PPG signals is usually not satisfactory due the PPG signal being generated from a single-wavelength light that can only provide the overall blood volume changes along the light penetration path, but not the blood volume changes of a specific layer.
  • IR PPG measures the sum total of volume changes in any and all blood vessels (e.g., large and small arteries, arterioles, capillaries, venules, and veins) throughout the skin, while the blood pulsation signal of a specific layer like pure arterial blood volume changes cannot be separated out from the IR PPG signal.
  • the inability to distinguish depth of single-wavelength PPG measurements intrinsically degrades the performance for estimating cardiovascular and respiratory parameters, which requires the physiological information of the blood vessels in certain depths.
  • Pulse Transit Time is the time it takes the pulse pressure waveform to propagate through a length of the arterial tree, which is a promising method to measure blood pressure (BP) in a continuous and cuff-less manner.
  • PTT measurement PPG is commonly used to mark the arrival of the pulse wave at a peripheral site.
  • arteries and capillaries are different in blood vessel wall components and blood circulation paths, arterial blood volume waveform and capillary blood volume waveform have different morphologies, as well as a phase shift.
  • IR PPG or any other single-wavelength PPG signal is a superposition of various pulse wave functions of blood vessels in different types and depths, thus unable to reflect the pure arterial blood change in the deep layer of the skin. Therefore, PTT cannot be precisely measured with a single wavelength PPG in which the capillary blood pulsations fundamentally weaken PTT’s BP tracking ability.
  • Generating a depth-specific PPG signal that can reflect blood pulsation information within a specific tissue has great importance for measuring cardiovascular and respiratory parameters.
  • the instant invention provides accurate and effective methods for measuring cardiovascular and respiratory parameters, which can include deriving a depth-specific photoplethysmography (PPG) signal from multi-wavelength PPG signals. Deriving the depth-specific PPG signal can include choosing light wavelength combinations, calibrating a multi-layer light-tissue interaction model referring to a physiological signal like electrocardiography (ECG) , and generating the depth-specific PPG signal from the multi-wavelength PPG signals based on the calibrated light-tissue interaction model. The generated depth-specific PPG signal can replace traditional single-wavelength PPG in various cardiovascular and respiratory applications with fundamentally improved performance.
  • the instant invention also provides methods for measuring blood pressure using a depth-specific PPG signal, which is generated from infrared PPG (IR_PPG) and green PPG (G_PPG) to reflect the arterial blood volume pulsation.

Abstract

L'invention concerne des procédés efficaces et précis permettant de mesurer des paramètres cardiovasculaires et respiratoires. Le procédé permettant de dériver un signal de photopléthysmographie (PPG) spécifique de profondeur à partir de signaux PPG à plusieurs longueurs d'onde consiste à choisir des combinaisons de longueurs d'onde de lumière, à étalonner un modèle d'interaction lumière-tissu multicouche se référant à un signal physiologique, et à générer le signal PPG spécifique de profondeur à partir des signaux PPG à plusieurs longueurs d'onde d'après le modèle d'interaction lumière-tissu étalonné. Le procédé de mesure de la pression sanguine (PS) sans brassard consiste à enregistrer un signal physiologique et des signaux PPG à plusieurs longueurs d'onde d'une partie corporelle prédéterminée, à dériver le signal PPG spécifique de profondeur reflétant le volume de sang artériel avec le signal physiologique comme référence, à calculer le temps de transit des impulsions (PTT) à partir du signal physiologique et du signal PPG du sang artériel dérivé, et à calculer la pression artérielle à partir de la relation PTT étalonné et pression artérielle.
